The Hawk Queen Bed 9:30pm
I am That Infant
born of Childhood Playmates
Who should never have married
carried in the arms
of Dr Albert Schweitzer
forever held in a black & white photograph
hanging in The Dining Room
of Dr W Hunter Blair
The Hawk Outpost 3:36pm
There Sits One Cloud
Perfectly Bulbous
Out Over My Flattened Sea —
Today Is A Day For Me
The Sun Is On The Sky
& I’ll Have Dinner Guests
To Round Out My Table
The Tomato-coloured Couch 6:15pm
What would happen
if The World
believed a 125 lb
white 53 year-old
North American female
is
God?
What if The World believed
Her Message
that The Human Race
is God?
The Tomato-coloured Couch 9:37pm
1. Second Coming Of Christ —
immediate result of The Shower Of Silver Lights
aspects: brilliant light, whiteness (not skin colour),
awakening, worldly vision
–
2. The Anti-Christ —
wants to obliterate Christianity —
I don’t want to obliterate
anyone’s religion but I do wonder
what this world would be like
with only One Religion
–
3. Black Jesus —
black in colour (not skin colour),
represents compassion,
humanity’s darkness
used in conjunction as opposing element in
The Grand Design Of Our Reconciliation Of Opposites
The Hawk West Desk Window 12:17pm
I Have Seen The Universe
Swirled In The Accidental Toe Print
Of Our White Cloth Bath Mat
In Eliza’s Shower
& When I Stepped Upon It
I Unintentionally Drew Out The Pin Wheel Form
To Leave
A Mere Trace
Of Our Grandest
Design
June 19, 2014 The Hawk Dining Room
I have seen The Emblem
of Canada
before the pink sky
animated
by a song on the radio*
dancing
not to gusty wind
but toward a place
in My Mind

The Tomato-coloured Couch 6:22pm
I stare across
to My Neighbour’s Canadian Flag
stretched out & shivering
in the gusts
I feel My Veins quickening
& know too hard
The Eye is self-trained
to soak in The Flickering
& feed It to The Blood
The Hawk Deck 4:43pm
I Have A Stigmata
applied twice daily
with a Q -Tip
to My Right Cheek
(facial, that is)
I’m killing a part of Me —
a part of unfavourable growth —
I march around proudly
with the evidence of Sun
